How much does it cost to have gastric bypass surgery?
Estimated charges for the surgery and hospitalization are approximately $25,000 to $35,000. Additional costs may be accrued for necessary consults before and after surgery. All professional provider fees including the surgeon, anesthesiologist, radiologist, pathologist, internist and other specialist fees are separate from the hospital charges, and you are advised to discuss these fees with his or her office. In addition, charges for care provided by the dietitian and nurse may not be covered by your insurance provider.

It is important for you to contact your insurance carrier for your benefit information.
